Founder's Office Part-Time Internship
Hello, I am Vikra 👋
I run this fun little marketing corner on the internet and I'm looking for an intern to build a meaningful space for marketers.
As an intern at a media company, you are responsible for researching marketing resources, engaging the community, and making sure the operations run smoothly.
I will share details in a second, but first, this is what you are getting into.
Apply nowWhat is The Modern Marketers?
We are an early stage newsletter about AI in marketing.
We curate the best resources available on the internet so that marketers don't have to go through hundreds of resources themselves. We interview marketing experts, too, to share their real workflows and systems with our readers.
We primarily operate on borrowed knowledge, but sometimes write case studies from first hand experience as well.
Our goal is to provide the best resources and curated expertise for marketers across the globe and help them become marketing engineers.
See newsletter archive.
We also run an invite-only community on Discord. The goal with the community is to create a small, tightly knit group of high agency marketers to talk about all things marketing and AI.
How you can help The Modern Marketers help top marketers
Your role covers three channels:
1. Newsletter
80% of our job is to research hundreds of resources so we can reject 80% of them and pick the top 20%. That is what you will be doing.
You will consume so many resources that you develop a sense of what is good and bad, and you will curate a final list of sources for the team to choose from. It's for our weekly newsletter that goes out on Monday.
We also conduct marketing interviews and curate their knowledge. So your job is to find top marketers doing interesting work so we can reach out to them and ask for an interview.
2. Community
You are primarily responsible for engagement and operations of the community.
Engagement
- Share resources daily with our marketers
- Ask right questions and make it easy for community members to share value
- Come up with ideas for weekly online sessions
Operations
- Report community analytics. Look for decision points that help us increase engagement
- Manage online event invites, make reports on what we should improve
3. Socials
My primary channels, ToFu for newsletter, are Instagram and X/Twitter. You will find topics that you think will attract marketers to subscribe to our newsletter.
You will also engage from The Modern Marketer's X/Twitter account to build some traction.
PS. You will not be doing this alone. I will guide you through each step. We will work together on the strategy and decisions, and you will take ownership of tasks and get things done.
What we are looking for
Of course, we are not looking for a generalist intern to function like a marketer with 3-5 years' experience.
We understand you're early in your career and we will guide you with what you need.
All we need is the intent to grow while taking ownership and accountability.
Plus, some skills
- You are good with people. You don't have to match their expertise. But if I put you in a room with two of our community members, you should be able to engage them in a conversation. Your people skills matter a lot here; in text and speaking.
- You should be curious about marketing and AI. Most of your job is to consume what's happening in these two domains, so we can combine them to help our readers.
- Bonus if you create content online because that gives you a perspective you won't get from reading/watching resources.
More details
- The compensation for this role is 10,000 INR/month for the first three months. You will get bonuses based on your performance and newsletter revenue. I want to make sure you grow as the newsletter grows.
- We care about outcomes over activities or hours. As long as you meet each week's priorities and tasks, it doesn't matter if you work 20 hours or 3 hours a week.
- The job is fully remote with flexible timings.
- You will be in the same room as some of the high agency marketers. If you are seriously considering a career in marketing, this role will give you access to multiple marketers working with top creators, agencies, and product companies.
How to apply
Record a 5 minute Loom speaking about three things:
- Your background + what qualities and skills make you think you'll kill it in this role.
- Recommend one marketing resource for me and share why I should consume it.
- What is fun for you during off work hours? Aka, hobbies.
